April 7, 2007 (Press Release) --
Microsoft announced it will release five patches on Tuesday, as part of its monthly security update. According to the company’s web site, four Microsoft Security Bulletins will address issues in Microsoft Windows. The highest Maximum Severity rating for these is Critical. These updates will be detectable using the Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer and will require a restart.
The fifth security is addressing Microsoft Content Management Server. The highest Maximum Severity rating for these is Critical.
Also Microsoft will release an updated version of the Microsoft Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool on Windows Update, Microsoft Update, Windows Server Update Services and the Download Center.
Microsoft Corp on Tuesday issued a software patch to fix a critical vulnerability in its Windows operating system and six other flaws. The patch addressed the so-called Windows animated cursor vulnerability and was released a week ahead of the regular monthly patch date. It was only the third patch since January 2005 to be posted outside the normal monthly schedule. The vulnerability first surfaced last week, when Microsoft acknowledged ongoing attacks.
Since then, the bug has been tagged as "very dangerous" by security experts, has been distributed by hundreds of malicious Web sites and was the focus of multiple spam campaigns designed to dupe users into visiting criminal Web sites.
The vulnerability marks the first critical bug on Windows Vista since the operating system's release on January 30, and the first flaw in Vista's own code.
